ο»ΏSanta is coming to town... OUR town and we are excited to see him!

So - no need to drive "Down the Hill". Schedule your Santa visit locally in Evergreen, Bailey, and Conifer, send him a letter, and find him online and on TV!

We know there may be more Santa events out there, and some you will find on the Macaroni KID Event Calendar.  If you see that we have missed a free or low-cost event, please let us know. We will add it ASAP! Submit your events HERE. (NOTE: Some events may be free to attend, but may have nominal costs for additional events or activities and the purchase of photos.

Letters to/from Santa

Kids love sending letters to Santa. Here's where you can drop them off locally:

  • Macaroni Kid EVERGREEN Receive a FREE personalized letter from Santa: Just complete the quick form and a minute later you will have an email with a printable letter from Santa himself that you can give to your child - have their elf deliver it, send it in the mail to them, or just hand it to them. #MKPBGSanta
  • (All Macy's Locations) Santa's Post Office at Macy's: At every Macy's around the country, there is a letterbox to collect letters for Santa Claus. Bring your stamped letter to Macy's, addressed to Santa at the North Pole and drop it into Santa's letterbox. For every letter received, Macy's will donate $1 to the Make-A-Wish Foundation. You can also send your letter via the link above.
  • USPS Letters from Santa:  Send your child's letter and a personalized response with a self-addressed envelope to Santa and it will be returned with a postmark from Anchorage, Alaska! Send your letters by December 10th.
Websites

We have come across a few fun, free websites that offer great holiday activities for kids:

  • Macy's Santaland at Home! A festive online holiday experience for everyone. This personalized, interactive journey through the North Pole is a fun way to ensure a visit with Santa and take a selfie with him as well.
  • Watch Santa Feed the Reindeer! At www.reindeercam.com you can watch Santa feed the reindeer.
  • Portable North Pole My daughter loves this site! Enter your child's name and age, answer a few questions about their behavior and what they want for Christmas. Photos can also be uploaded from special events over the course of the year. It then produces a video with an in-the-flesh Santa who reads to your child from a book with your uploaded photos. It is very personalized for an automated website program and is just adorable We have watched this over and over and over. (You do have the option of purchasing the video to download and keep for about $5.) This is great for the little ones! www.portablenorthpole.com
  • Track Santa with NORAD Use this popular website to track Santa's movements on Christmas Eve. Until then, there is a "Countdown to Track Santa" and a "Santa's Village" page where your child can scroll over the village to locate which shop is busiest and uncover a secret activity of the day. Beginning at 2:00 am EST on Christmas Eve, NORAD will be posting updates on both Google Maps and Google Earth via the NORAD Santa site. NORAD personnel will begin answering phone calls and emails at 4:30 am EST on Christmas Eve. You can reach the program at 1-877-Hi-NORAD (877) 446-6723 or visit www.noradsanta.org.
